Global Specialty Fertilizers Market: Market Dynamics
Drivers
High Efficiency of Specialty Fertilizers
Fertilizers are one of modern agriculture's most important elements. The production of fruit, feed, fuel, fiber and other plant products has increased markedly with the application of fertilizers in agricultural practices. Specialty fertilizers offer farmers another opportunity to achieve responsible nutrient stewardship in their arsenal.
Restraints
Cost ineffectiveness
Production cost of specialty fertilizer is very high as compared to conventional fertilizers, since specialty fertilizers have a complex manufacturing method. The prices of controlled-release fertilizers are four to six times higher than traditional NPK (nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium) prices, according to the IFA (International Fertilizer Association).
